Rumari “King Rumer” Rogers made history last week by becoming the first singer in the history of St. Maarten Carnival to have won the Senior Road March Competition for three consecutive years. Rogers performed his hit single “G-String” in front of a huge crowd on Walter J. Nisbeth Road (Pondfill) against contenders who had their eyes set on the crown.

Uncle Brasi of TG Band came in second with 239 points while Boogie G Suave of Xplosion Band came in third. Newcomer Major Dice impressed the audience with his creative style of performing during his time on stage. He made a vehicle from wood, jumped on it and was carried throughout the crowd singing his song.

King Rumer was crowned by St. Maarten Carnival Development Foundation (SCDF) President Alston Lourens and member Edwardo Radjouki.
